Default Air Quality Sensor

I bought myself a cheap Air Quality Sensor off EBAY. I know I don't really need it, but its about the only thing I have down as a fault on VIDA. I know there have been many posts on these in the past, but when I have searched, I can't seem to find one that tells me where it is, and what to do to change it.

Can some kind soul point me in the right direction.

many thanks

done mine not so long ago,its located under the bottom of windscreen you have to remove the plastic panel on the outside where the windscreen wipers are.I did mine without taking the wiper arms off as they were very tight and I didnt want to break anything,you remove the round trim plugs on the panel to gain access be careful not to force them,the aqs is clipped into the air intake,remove the wired connector first then off it pops,also remember to take the old gasket off the aqs you are taking out and put it on the new one ( I forgot) be worth you while to clean the area while your there as mine was full of debris

If it's any consolation, all 3 of the P2 models I've owned had thrown up that fault as well as several member's cars I've hooked VIDA up to.

I bought one from EBAY that had been recommended by a member on the forum. http://http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT


I have not fitted it yet - so here's hoping.
